Hamilton gets $120 million for infrastructure

Hamilton will receive $120 million in infrastructure funding.

John Baird, Canada's Minister of Transport, Infrastructure, and Communities, and George Smitherman, Ontario's Deputy Premier and Minister of Energy and Infrastructure, were in Oakville this afternoon to announce a joint federal and provincial stimulus investment for Ontario communities. 

The city submitted a prioritized, $400-million wish list that ranges from water projects to road repairs. Staff estimate the city could receive about $130 million based on population.
